Due to the limited grip provided by their round tires, which aid leaning into corners, motorbikes sometimes don’t stop as quickly as you might expect them to. This Russian rider was speeding along on a straight piece of road, but he fails to judge the distance between himself and a Porsche Cayenne, which had stopped at a set of traffic lights, correctly.
He predictably slams into the back of it while still traveling rather quickly. We don’t really know what happened afterward, yet we are pretty sure it must have hurt. The incident was captured on a bike-mounted camera which was attached to the right side of the bike.
It just goes to show that if you do feel the need to break the law (at your own risk) by speeding, you should pay much more attention to what’s going on around you, as things tend to approach you quite quickly, especially if you’re not completely focused on the task at hand.
